Update on School Dinner Prices – Effective 13 April 2026

Dear Parents and Carers,
We are writing to inform you of an unavoidable increase to the cost of school dinners from 13 April 2026.
Due to significant rises in the cost of energy, food supplies, and staffing, the current price of £2.50 per day has become unsustainable. From the start of the summer term, the price will increase to £2.70 per day, which is an overall rise of £1.00 per week.
Please note:
  • KS1 pupils will continue to receive free school meals under the Universal Infant Free School Meals scheme.
  • If your child qualifies for means‑tested Free School Meals (FSM), the school is also able to offer additional financial support in other areas, such as help with uniform, trips, and resources.
  • It is beneficial to apply for FSM even if your child already receives Universal Free School Meals, as eligibility unlocks this extra support for your family and additional funding for the school.
We understand that any increase is challenging for households, and we have kept prices as low as possible for as long as possible. Thank you for your understanding and continued support.
If you have any questions or need help with the FSM application process, please contact the school office.

U11s boys football

A great performance from the U11s boys football team who were narrowly defeated 2-1 against Prees after school today. Oliver produced his usual amazing performance in goal, Mylo and William were outstanding in defence, Oliver and Seb worked their socks off in midfield and Elvin was clinical in front of goal when the chance came. It was a pleasure to watch such a great team performance. Thanks to the parents/grandparents who came along to watch and support the team.

Reminder – Non Uniform Day – Friday 13th March

Just a reminder that children are invited to come to school in non-uniform on Friday 13th March in exchange for a donation of a chocolate egg or a similar Easter treat.  We will be holding our second Easter Bingo event on Wednesday 25th March., straight after school. Last year we had a ‘full house’ and it would be wonderful to see the same again this year.

Thank you very much for your support, it is greatly appreciated.

Red Nose Day – Friday 20th March 2026

Red Nose Day is back on Friday 20th March! We’ll be joining people across the nation to “take ourselves funny for money” and raise funds for this wonderful cause.

Children are invited to come to school wearing something that makes them smile – this could be comedy hair, a funny accessory, or a bright and cheerful outfit. It can be as simple or as elaborate as you like – the aim is just to have fun and share a laugh together.

This Red Nose Day, let’s giggle again while helping to change lives – putting food on plates, roofs over heads, and helping to keep little ones safe.

If you would like to make a donation towards this fantastic cause, please click the link below to visit our JustGiving page:

Many thanks, Mrs McVey
